Re: [docbook-apps] imageobject / ?imagedata? / pure svg tags

Just a comment:

I have been using SVG graphics with DocBook4 for years, but using
DocBook5-style inclusion via imagedata (and customized RelaxNG
validation).  With this notation, the recent docbook-xsl stylesheets
beautifully work out of the box: If your SVG root element contains a
viewBox and width and height attributes set to 100%, then the
resulting xhtml/firefox and fo/fop behave consistently with raster
images.

So, the most parsimonious solution might be to fix this within the
DocBook4 spec instead of (or in addition to) the stylesheets: Allow
DocBook5-style SVG graphics inclusion in DocBook4 (in addition to the
current inclusion as a direct child of imageobject).
